remote wire run off of the red + wire(remote turn on wire) on the back of your headunit, plug the rca wires in and run them back, the power wire open your hood look on the firewall for the spot were you see a rubber bushing with alot of wire going in, its usually on the passenger side behind your heater core, run the power wire, remote turn on, and rca wires along the passenger door line, pull the plastic up and run all of the lines under the carpet to the trunk, remove the rear seat and run the lines into the trunk

there are no rca outputs on the stock unit, the plastic pannels at the foot of the door pop off, to take you back seat out there are two clips on it, you have to push the front of the seat towards the trunk and lift it up at the same time to unclip it, reinstall the same way, since you dont have rca outputs you can run straight wires rightoff your rear speakers direectly to your amp, dont forget to turn your high pass filter on because you dont want highs or mids through your subs

you need an INLINE CONVERTER .... makes your factory HU have RCA's by turning your high out-put speaker lines into signal lines...have fun soldering it all together...if you dont know how to run your wires i suggest a local sound shop do the install for you...
